Customer Reviews Carhartt Denim Bib Overall Unlined

I purchased the Bib Overalls in a size Medium based on the size chart and other reviewers. They were enormous! I am 5'6 and weigh 133. I am returning them and thankful that Zappos has free return shipping.

These overalls are cut for a woman through the waist and hips, which is good. I returned them, though, for two reasons: 1. The bib sits really low. (I shortened the straps until I gave myself a wedgie and the top of the bib was still at nipple-level.) 2. True to the description, these have a (very) wide leg.

Carhartt is the only brand of overalls for tall women I have found that ARE NOT 100% cotton, which is exactly what I was looking for since what I got them for requires bending over frequently, hence needing stretch and give to move. Not uncomfortably stiff as a board. The inseam on these measures 33", not actually 34". I am 5'10", 135 lbs and need a true 34" inseam or longer because pants are supposed to go a little under your feet, not above them. Also, even when I adjusted the shoulder straps the longest and loosest they go, they were still a little too tight in the shoulders when bending over and squatting to test them out. They only fit fine around widthwise. I ordered a small tall, but am hesitant about exchanging them for a medium tall since Carhartt's sizing is so inconsistent! Their tops and jackets are made too big around in width and not long enough in lengthy, so I can only wear the vests as far as jackets go since I don't have to worry about any sleeves being too short. The original fit Crawford Dungaree (97% cotton 3% spandex) are great being long in length, but I ordered a 6 tall and they are pretty big around and in the fit overall. Guess that's what happens when clothing isn't made in the US!
